Abstract
A bar of soap or soap dispensing container "bar", whereby teeth or ridges are formed into the product such that as it is rubbed on the body, the contact pressure causes the teeth to lightly bend the skin at a number of points creating a series of waves in the skin which move along the surface of the skin as the soap is moved, thereby creating a traveling wave which acts to help remove dirt and dead skin particles and create a pleasant massaging effect, wherein the teeth forms are shaped to provide transverse and lateral strength in the product so it will not easily break, and so that it can be stacked for more dense shipping and better handling.
